“Great love, you believe, carries the seeds of great sorrow.”

“Giulietta pressed the letter against her heart. "I know what you are thinking. You wish to protect me...And you think Romeo will cause me pain. Great love, you believe, carries the seeds of great sorrow. Well, perhaps you are right...but I should rather choose to have my eyes burnt in their sockets than to have been born without.”

“shallow sorrows and shallow loves live on. the loves and sorrows that are great are destroyed by their own plenitude”

“The loves and sorrows that are great are destroyed by their own plentitude.”

“Though sorrow may impede my heart,It is of great love to have known you.”

“You are the most dangerous kind of female the world can ever know. You carry the seeds for your own destruction and the destruction of everyone who loves you. And a great many will love you for your beautiful face for your seductive body; but you will fail them all because you will believe they all fail you first. You are an idealist of the worst kind - the romantic idealist. Born to destroy and self destruct.”
